When my GoPro Omni rig arrived in Washington, D.C. I was so excited to test out the “official” 360 rig of GoPro I even did a Facebook Live video of the unboxing to answer questions from my fellow filmmakers.

Unfortunately, while the rig-only option came with what was expected — the Omni rig without GoPro cameras or external power — since most 360 filmmakers already have 6, 12 or more GoPros, it did not come with a key component.

The manual.

After much searching on GoPro’s support website and hitting conflicting instructions from customer support this is the manual GoPro should have included.
